How To Structure Your Meals – Fit & Fabulous

Day # 2 of Clean Eating Guidelines

So now that you have an understanding of how to eat, I will go on to share with you what to eat when. You are going to love the next two weeks if you follow along. Your belly will feel less bloated, your skin will glow and you should end up with a heap of extra energy. The only way to get these benefits is to really stick to it for the two weeks with little to no cheating. You will not be left hungry if anything you should be full all and sick of eating, as I eat all day.

WHAT WE DO WRONG

So the meals are five to six small meals a day. For some reason we skip or have a small breaky, sweet morning tea, white bread sandwich for lunch, sweet afternoon tea, then a massive dinner with sweet dessert after. I am here to tell you that it is so wrong for your bodies requirements. Flip it on its head and it’s somewhat improved, take out all the sweet and it’s even better.

HOW THE FIVE – SIX MEALS WORK

MEAL ONE: We need breakfast and we need it within half an hour of waking. When you have fasted all night your body is extra receptive to nutrients so breaky is a great time for a really healthy big meal, not crappy toast and coffee.

MEAL TWO: Around 10am, swap the name from morning tea to after workout meal. This is a repair and replenish meal. Some kind of protein is needed.This can also be had as a smoothie.

MEAL THREE: Lunch time. Lunch is usually a salad and a protein.To make life easy this is there the BBQ chicken comes in.

MEAL FOUR: Afternoon tea, now becomes vegetables and or a smoothie. Eww I hear you say, hang in there I don’t eat eww either it’s going to be good.

MEAL FIVE: Dinner time. Keep dinner small, there is NO need for a large meal at the end of the day. Pretty soon you hit the sack and you will never use the energy you have consumed. Try to avoid simple carbs at dinner so bread rolls that came with the meal, ask them to take them back, garlic bread, fries, pasta. These are the mistakes you are all making that shit is getting stuck to your ar*e while you are sleeping. You CAN eat carbs, just avoid them in the last meal of the day when you no longer require such energy in because unless you sleep walk you will store it on your hips for later this is a fact. Sucks but it’s true.

MEAL SIX: If you are still hungry a protein shake is an awesome choice for the after dinner meal. This will make sure you are full and won’t then hang out in the kitchen looking for chocolate.

This is how my meals are structured. Yes I eat out, yes I eat chocolate and pizza, I just make this the way I eat 95% of the time. It’s important to me as I know it works so I keep doing it. What’s so important about starting this is repetition, you need to eat the same way each day at the same time in order for it to become a habit. You soon learn that at 10am it’s egg time, or at 12pm it’s chicken salad time. No longer will you stand in the kitchen snacking on chocolate when you know it’s time to grab the chock and get eating.

Sharing with you because it is achievable if someone shows you how, that’s where I come in. Tomorrow I will share the meal plan I’d like you all to try. I am working on educating you here first then giving you time to grab what’s on the shopping list then you can get started on being Fit & Fabulous.
